Spiracle

Spiracle is an insecure web application used to test system security controls.

It can be used to read/write arbitrary files and open network connections. The application is also vulnerable to numerous other vulnerabilities such as:

  • SQL Injection (CWE-89)

  • XSS (CWE-79)

  • CSRF (CWE-352)

  • Path Traversal (CWE-22)

  • Deserialization (CWE-502)

  • and many more…​

Caution
Due to its insecure design, this application should NOT be deployed on an unsecured network or system.

This application has been tested on the following application servers:

  • Apache Tomcat 7.x

  • IBM WebSphere Liberty Core 8.5.5.3

Your mileage may vary with other application servers.

Installation

Tomcat

  • Copy the war file to the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ directory.

Liberty Core

  • Ensure that the application war file is extracted to your server’s apps directory:

    $ mkdir ./wlp/usr/servers/defaultServer/apps/spiracle
    $ cd ./wlp/usr/servers/defaultServer/apps/spiracle
    $ jar xvf /path/to/downloaded/spiracle.war
  • Modify server.xml as follows:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <server description="new server">
      <!-- Enable features -->
      <featureManager>
        <feature>jsp-2.2</feature>
        <feature>Servlet-3.0</feature> <!--(1)-->
      </featureManager>
    
      <webApplication contextRoot="spiracle" location="spiracle"/> <!--(2)-->
      <httpSession idLength="28" /> <!--(3)-->
    
      <httpEndpoint id="defaultHttpEndpoint"
                    host="*" <!--(4)-->
                    httpPort="9080"
                    httpsPort="9443"/>
    </server>
    1. Enable Servlet-3.0 as a feature

    2. Add a webApplication tag referencing Spiracle

    3. Change httpSession parameter length

    4. Add a host attribute

Database setup

If you would like to run the SQL injection tests, the database should be populated as follows. Data files are available in the web applications spiracle/conf/ directory after the spiracle.war file has been deployed and exploded.

Oracle

  1. Ensure that the Oracle Database JDBC Driver (ojdbc6.jar) is installed in the applications WEB-INF/lib/ directory after the spiracle.war file is exploded on first run.

  2. Import the data:

    $ sqlplus SYS/password@//127.0.0.1:1521/XE AS SYSDBA < setupdb_oracle.sql
    Note
    This will create a user test with password test. You should adjust usernames and/or connection URLs dependent on your environment
  3. Configuration parameters for the Oracle JDBC connection are defined in conf/Spiracle.properties:

    c3p0.classname=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    c3p0.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE
    c3p0.username=test
    c3p0.password=test
Note
It may be necessary to restart your application server after deploying the ojdbc6.jar or updating database configuration.

MySQL

  1. Import the data:

    $ mysql -u root -p test < setupdb_mysql.sql
    Note
    This will create a user test with password test. You should adjust usernames and/or connection URLs dependent on your environment
  2. Configuration parameters for the MySQL JDBC connection are defined in conf/Spiracle.properties:

    c3p0.classname=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
    c3p0.url=jdbc:jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
    c3p0.username=test
    c3p0.password=test
Note
Spiracle is bundled with MySQL Connector 5.1.34. If this version is not compatible with your MySQL installation replace mysql-connector-java-5.1.34.jar under WEB-INF/lib/ with a compatible version.

Running

After deployment, the Spiracle application will be available at:

http://ip:port/spiracle/

Building

Prerequisites:

If you wish to use the database features, ensure that the Oracle database JDBC driver file ojdbc6.jar is available under ./src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib

To build the Spiracle Test Application WAR file, run:

$ mvn install -Dversion.webxml=30

or

$ mvn install -Dversion.webxml=25

To clean the build infrastructure, run:

$ mvn clean

The WAR file will be output to:

./target/Spiracle.war
